17 |Start| Um does anyone care that Alysa just left? forget her * Azuro pouts * Vassago looks at Raena who is obviously depressed over the whole thing Why, did she leave...? The whole "people don't need religion thing" so she is... I know...but...she didn't have to leave because of that... * Raena sighs * Azuro interrupts Drake "And I hope she never comes back!!!!!!" I guess that is her choice though <^Drake> Yeah so it is I guess Drake!!! Take everyone and leave now wha?? what are you talking about vas?? Do not ask questions just leave You aren't making sense!!! Raena please let's leave, quickly but we can't leave....what about zeppelin? we have to find him What could possibly be scaring you forget Zepp for right now |a tall man in black armor aproaches| <^Drake> What is that * Rethwyn steps up looks them over * Vassago pulls out his scimitar and looks slyly hmm..yes...they are the ones... Rethwyn was it?? yes... .....the.....acolyte??? now ...... * Rethwyn looks over the group <^Drake> Who is the acoly.........you mean the dark dragonmaster???? dark...dragonmaster? that can't be good -_- * Rethwyn nods you are correct... You know who I am.....correct I am the dragon master of the lord Zophar... We know who you are and you are Vassago.. exiled warrior of the masters... yes I know who you are of course... .. Let them go, they aren't ready..... fight me I am sorry.. how powerful is he vas?? but I am honor bound by the master’s orders So be it. |Fight| * Rethwyn clamps eyes on James |Jareks Turn| * Jarek pulls out his daggers * Rethwyn looks up at Jarek calmly I'm gonna make this quick, even though I don't like you * Rethwyn smiles your bravery shall be remembered by me...fear not.. even after your demise * ^Drake Jarek pulls his arm back jumps forward and stabs at Rethwyn <^Drake> |-3 hp Rethwyn| ..... <^Drake> Jarek: It barely dented him!!!!!!!!!!!! * Rethwyn smiles |Rethwyns turn| * Rethwyn stabs at Jarek with his weapon |Jarek dead| JAREK >_< JAREK!!!!!!!!! He he's dead!!!! * Azuro is shocked I am sorry...however you shall be remembered as a brave warrior in the halls of the slain heroes What no!!! He's weak, and you..... YOU spoke of honor!!! ...and this is a surprise to you? * Vassago is full of rage |James's turn| I am a knight by any other name in the service of the master... You are a coward to take him like that .... he attacked me I believe * James fires negate beam at Rethwyn but he was so weak compared to you it was defense... ....... nothing personal.. sorry but I have orders... |Rethwyn deflects beam, A hole is shot through the middle of James' head| JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMES!!!!!!!!!!! I am sorry...... * Rethwyn looks over at James' corpse sadly oh my god, j...James * Raena looks in horror as James' head is blown away. "J.. J.. James.." o_O * Vassago sneers you shall be remembered.... You! You! shut your mouth as you wish... I don't like this any more then you * Raena struggles to find the words of her litany... though I don't expect you to believe me.. now is the time of your death, prepare to fall upon my blade dark one |Vassagos turn| it's impossible for you to believe that someone who serves the god has honor I suppose.. Drake please leave now No I will not listen to him.. this.. will cause much collateral damage... * Vassago pulls back his scimitar ... * Vassago's eyes develop a dark eerie glow ... The time to perish has arrived * Rethwyn waits for the coming attack perhaps it has.. V.. Vassago.. * Vassago's Scimitar molds into a clefblade with a more inverted hook resembling a scythe may i at least die in honorable battle with a powerful warrior then live...with that assignment on my consciousnse... When Zophar took my powers, because I was still half dragon... He could not take my claw * Vassago arcs the claw behind his head and jumps into the air .... AAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!! W.. wait! Vassago! STOP! * Rethwyn closes eyes and waits for the attack, expecting death * Vassago drops to the ground in front of Rethwyn ...........What? * Raena holds out her hands. "If you kill him you'll be no better than Zophar!" huh <^Drake> He killed those mortals though Well he is a mortal and you aren't But.. but why does death have to be the answer.. always.. * Rethwyn drops weapon no...he is right * Vassago points his claw towards the exit .... Leave and pray in dark I never see you again ...... * Raena looks to James sadly, and starts crying... * Rethwyn would rather Vassago kills him * Rethwyn picks up weapon * Rethwyn walks away * Rethwyn to the exit she is.........she is right, we have no place |The sky darkens| ...? * Rethwyn what...? STOP!!! MASTER! Fight them Rethwyn * Rethwyn bows but master....they are ill prepared for such an encounter * Raena stops, hearing the voice. "Him.." o_o So then it should be easy More treachery, you coward they are no threat to you if such a lowly servant such as me can defeat them that easy! |A ray of black light explodes into Vassago| You are not worthy to bear my crest.........or your burden ..... * Rethwyn lowers head |The sun turns into a ball of black flame| Vassago.. master....to kill them would... * Raena runs over to him. ENCROACH ON THE LAST BIT OF HONOR I HAVE LEFT! |Clouds of pure black form into the sky| I AM SORRY BUT I WILL NOT DO THIS THING! STRIKE ME DOWN FOR MY INSOLENCE IF YOU WITH * Rethwyn drops weapon Honor only belongs to gods not humans! * Rethwyn gets angry for once... YOU! YOU HYPOCRITE! * Rethwyn trembles with anger * Raena tries to help Vassago up.. YOU CALL THIS HONOR? THE KILLING OF CHILDREN? since i am a god I have honor, you do not have the power to be a threat to me so I will spare you NO ONE WANTS YOUR MEANINGLESS CHARITY |A black flame falls from the sky enveloping Rethwyn, and it bursts leveling half the houses in the area| Vassago.. please, get up.. AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! * Rethwyn screams in pain * Raena is blown back by the force a ways, rolling on the ground. "Oogh.." |the sky brightens up, Rethwyn lays in the center of a huge hole in the ground unconscious and armorless| * Rethwyn moans in unconsciousness No....he is, he is Vile * Raena tries to clear her head, and views the devastation with a heavy heart. :( * Rethwyn moans out words |Rethwyn is like a man except his skin is pale, his hair is dark, his nails are long and black| He looks, he almost looks like Amiya forgive...me.. father.. i.. was not.. able.. to.. find.. the woman who... killed you... among the vile tribe...and...avenge you.... He's a vampire...... no. No he is too human * Rethwyn lets out a sigh of air and becomes silent ..... he's a dampile, his mother must have been a vampire, she must have came back and killed his father when he was old enough to not need care anymore Raena, I'm human............Let me kill him? * Raena stands, her previously spotless cape now all ashen. "A half..." Yeah * Drake looks at Raena * Drake sighs Why.. why.. :( You do know we can't take in every evil thing Zophar gives up on Maybe he knows where Zepp is <^Drake> Well he is out right now * Raena concentrates and starts mumbling, "Goddess above.. I pray for a boon upon all.. Miracle Litany!" STOP!!! You'll kill him!!! AHHH! * Raena holds her hand. "Again..?" * Raena slumps on the ground, defeated. * Rethwyn eyes snap awake when he hears the healing magic being summoned You can't heal members of the vile tribe with healing, you need darkness magic * Drake hugs Raena "It's ok, you tried. You are still good" I'm useless... I couldn't even save anyone.. * Drake cut's himself Um... Raena I just realized I cut myself in the fight * Rethwyn moans could...could you um help me? where....what.... |A prison elsewhere| Wake up, You two! I said get up..........NOW!!!!!! GWAH!! i thought id at least get one good nights sleep after being away from that damn cat -_- hey, hey...I’m getting! I’m getting! chill out * zeppelin stands up and brushes himself off Are, you? Are you insulting the dragons??? those cute little furry things? no of course not That's nice smartass, go wake her up her? * zeppelin looks around when did she get there? @_@ On the upper bunk, You idiot!!! You have been unconcious, by the darkness what did Zophar ever see in you * zeppelin walks toward the bed, jumping up on to the upper bunk anybody home? huh, oh I'm getting up thanks. We'll have food for you soon, stay here and stay awake you are on sleep deprivation now |Reldayne leaves| sleep deprivation...no changes there.... * zeppelin walks to the front of the cell i hope they can cook better than aki.... * Celes follows the man to the front of the cell aki is that a friend of yours? friend? I -guess- you could say that um...might i ask exactly why you're here? there usually aren't many ladies round these dungeons... I was at home in Vane and the zydeans raided the homes I wouldn't let them take my father instead they took me. zydeans.... those no good bastards * zeppelin kicks the cell door as hard as he can I’d kill every last one of those bastards if i could I wish there was something we could do to stop Zophar and his people. Too bad we are in here. yes....well, i used to be able to do something...but now I’m here. you alone? no...not alone. nobody takes on Zophar alone * zeppelin laughs well...maybe except Drake cocky little fellow that he is... Drake? Is that another one of your friends? well...i wouldn't say friend...i don’t think he ever forgave me for killing his parents...though i can understand why he wouldn't * zeppelin sighs * Celes gasps "...that would most likely take a while" I’d love to tell you Drake would come dashing to our rescue but i don’t know... i think he’s got better things to do than worry about me Drake and some of your other friends could bust in here and save you? That would be a feat. yeah...but they don't know where i am if only there was some way we could contact them * Reldayne is sitting in the shadows out of view and earshot "That is what we want" |Lann Village| Please Raena I'm bleeding |Drake is bleeding badly| * Drake says under breath "Must've hit a vein" * Drake passes out ... DRAKE!!!!! |Rethwyn regains conciousness| * Rethwyn gets up slowly and silently * Raena casts Heal Litany quickly! |Drake is healed| * Rethwyn picks up weapon quietly Thanks * Rethwyn turns to limp away * Raena looks a little happier.. I can do something for someone.. * Vassago smiles at Drake * Drake nods at Vassago Well, someone's awake * Rethwyn says silently to self ".no.....i cannot leave without atoning for what i have done..." * Rethwyn turns back around if it is ever possible.... Let's start this off simple, I would say your mother is in the vile tribe... what's her name?? ..her name is Amiya.... * Azuro snickers OOOOH! i joined Zophar’s forces trying to find her...... * Raena regains her composure ..and kill her * Vassago shrugs Oh great, that treacherous lascivious......... mom? i was trying to claim revenge for my father.. * Raena tries to rouse Jarek and James if possible.. but eventually gives up.. :/ Vass you been doing his mommy ..i am sorry.. but do not bother..... excuse me? * Rethwyn looks up at Vassago * Vassago groans * Rethwyn .... i see.. <^Drake> Umm... let's just say that.. um they were involved * Vassago whines "SHUT UP DRAKE!!!!" lemme guess....he made out with her because she was flexible right? * Azuro bursts into full out laughter same reason my father said HE got involved with her before he was killed... That is kind of why he said not to * Raena looks up at the laughter... <^Drake> As vas put it "Moral of the story: Don't make out with a shapeshifting vampire no matter how flexible she is" * ^Drake Vassago is about to knock Drake out * Azuro looks at Raena Please stop it... * Vassago stops * Rethwyn looks any bruises or bite marks on Vassago’s neck We need to find zeppelin... and make sure he is still alright.. ..zeppelin... i know that name... Quit looking, I am no longer a vampire * Drake looks at Vassago and makes whipping motions * Azuro laughs a traitor to the zydeans right?.. where is he i know where they took him.. You better tell us, cause we don't have much reason to keep him alive umm Drake?? * Raena lights up. "You do??? Where?" What?? Reldayne's dungeon.. i believe.. Do you think, that just maybe; we could get him some clothing before we threaten him further? yes.. that might be a proper idea.. Isn't that one of the Dragons of Zophar? * Rethwyn peeks from behind his hiding place in the ditch clothing would be a good thing... * Vassago's face is distorted "What have I done to make life this bad??" * Raena suddenly blushes, and looks away. Yeah? Isn't he Vassago?? Didn't he pick on you?? ...i remember that.. * Azuro and Drake begin laughing at Vassago Vassago took his inferior feelings out on the lesser troops.. i was one once... How do you know so much about us? thank goodness i didn't stay like that very long Oh ok i might not have lasted long with that flake... Where is this dungeon * Raena walks forward to the crater, keep her eyes turned away and undoes her red cape. it's out on the island.. so you'll need a boat.. * Raena extends it out to Rethwyn, shakily. ^^ thanks... Vas?? now...can anyone TOSS me some clothing now that i can hide behind this.? what? * Raena takes a few steps back, just standing in her white robe. "It's.. the least I can do for you.." ...i do not understand.. since i killed your comrades... about your claw......I didn't think you had an aura, to morph it and use a lancer attack yet you wish to help me........ OH. and one more thing I may only be half dragon, but I still need an aura I don't want anymore people to die... they'll probably be expecting you on the island.... so I’d go prepared.. Rethwyn....that was the name right? We don't care what happens to you. After what you did, be glad we don't slaughter you once we get Zeppelin back ... yet somehow I’m not afraid So I suggest <^Drake> what.... maybe it's the fact that you have no clue what you're up against * Drake pulls out his sword when you go after your friend * Drake grabs another sword throws it to Rethwyn ok.. ... <^Drake> 10 to 1 you have no power anymore.... ...i do not need it... <^Drake> I saw what He did to you i know.. <^Drake> we no longer need you * Rethwyn accepts the sword now... if you plan to attack me may i suggest TOSSING ME SOME CLOTHS FIRST * Drake tosses him clothes thank you... * Raena nods, solemn all of a sudden... * Rethwyn puts on cloths you may have your cape back if you wish.. * Rethwyn holds cape Raena lent him out to her * Drake lunges toward Rethwyn We duel now |A small battle ensues| ..your wasting time with me prospective dragonmaster * Raena takes the cape back into her hands, looking at it.. i believe.. your friend. is more important then killing me. or am i wrong? |Drake eventually knocks over Rethwyn........easily| * Raena then eeps, leaping back. "Why are you still fighting??" <^Drake> You don't have power anymore..........We don't need to fear you * Rethwyn looks up at drake ...AND YOUR POINT BEING, YOU IDIOT? * Drake gets up and walks toward the pier I NEVER SAID YOU HAD TO BE I said you had no clue what you were on against ON THE ISLAND * Vassago picks up Rethwyn with one hand * Raena lifts a finger and casts a small Glare upon Drake." go ahead... kill me... Stop it.. ..well finish what you started.. Be smart shut your mouth, he has a greater potential for evil then even I do, He was Zophar’s first choice for Acolyte. You said you were a knight....... ACT LIKE IT!!! * Vassago puts Rethwyn down ..which would explain his temper.. ...oh curse it to the lowest levels of the abyss... * Vassago looks apologetically at Raena * Rethwyn sheaths sword oh well.. I hope you fare well at the island HEY! you leave the abbess out of this!!! Just no more violence.. we have to save people.. not destroy them.. * Rethwyn yells after drake not abbess, abyss oh ok * Drake returns I got us a boat and hopefully you won't get lost in the dungeon * Rethwyn says to self * Rethwyn turns to walk away, since he figures he has no more place here Get back! Reth, you're not going to help.. after all we did? ? you spoke of honor, consider this penance and payment for your clothes and weapon i do not believe your leader wishes for my help..... ..that.. i can do.. * Rethwyn bows politely It doesn't matter what I want, this is about others ahh...you have conquered me.. eloquently put young dragon.. I am man enough to realize that so be it.. I will help as payment for the clothes and weapon... * Raena smiles. "Thank you.." SEE!!! he didn't call me a "cat" and he was evil!!!! ..cat? i don't get it |Rethwyn JOINS| ...cats do not have wings, fly, or talk... why would they call you a cat? |The party arrives on the island| hmm .... It's flat, there is nothing here * Rethwyn has the sudden urge to say "dad are we THERE YET?" it's below ground.. um Drake, Where are dungeons located? undergrou.......oh |Everyone looks around for a place to enter the ground| This is hopeless!!! * Rethwyn walks up to a tree I've done three sweeps of this island, and nothing! because you have been looking on the ground for an opening.. when you should look up A secret entrance? * Rethwyn pulls down a branch hmm? |Nothing happens branch breaks| ok.. so maybe i was wrong were lost so sue me * Raena looks around for a sign.. i don't know that much about the dungeons.. * Vassago wipes the dust off of a spot of earth perhaps we should look under water..? Found it wha ....so he has.. down we go i guess... Why are the bad guys most helpful because there smarter then the good guys ? * Rethwyn offers innocently not seeing the comedy in this statement |Vassago accidentally activated a switch, The sand sucks everyone into the ground| * Raena sweatdrops cutely. ^^ ^_^ AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH! * Raena gacks. "Ahh.. the ground..!" o_O AAAAAAAH!!! * Raena flails and falls in.. * Rethwyn is sucked down * Drake lands hard this won't end well.. * Rethwyn lands with a loud thud * Vassago lands and catches Raena, acts almost as though nothing happened * Azuro floats down This is smaller than most evil dungeons * Raena blinks, in Vassago's arms. unless this is a trap * Drake looks at a door T.. thank you.. ^^ Zepp you in there???????? and the walls are going to close in.. or.. the ground will close in on us.. * Rethwyn prattles on about different ways this could be a trap Shut up dude!!! ...ok.. Hi Raena :) * Vassago puts Raena down Zeppelin are you in there???????? perhaps...we can knock? DRAKE IS THAT YOU???????????? @_@ good call * Raena stands, blushing a little... but she shakes it off when confronted with the door. All right!!! Hmm it's locked hey Celes, he actually came! I take it that annoying high pitched voice was zeppelins? let me see * Drake looks in * Celes peers at zeppelin from the top bunk ..can't we pick the lock..? your friends...they are here... Hey Zepp let me ask you a question, what is with the scantily clad blonde in there?? * Celes hops down next to Zepp <^Drake> little love thing <^Drake> ?? * zeppelin blushes -_- give me some credit here -_- No drake, not all men are like you * Celes blushes she’s just another prisoner like me i do not see how that is a good question she's like 5 years younger than him at least * Raena calls out. "Zeppelin? Are you there?" his morality in who he partners with is not on question the question is SHUT UP!!!! >_< how to open the door yes yes! my names Celes and I am assuming one of you out there is Drake and one is Aki? that’s good ..aki? * Rethwyn looks at everyone how about I grip you by your throat and throw you through it?? ...is anyone here named aki?...thought not... .well that would work.. wait.. ..wait a sec... .......damn * Rethwyn turns and looks at the source of the voice Hello Vassykins ... ^_^.. can your friends handle Reldayne, Zeppelin? i assume in this situation.. you would use the phrase.. i don’t know.... "shiitttt...." maybe * Raena gets out her staff.. that can't be a good thing...if we could break through this door we could help... Shut up, Remember Salonius said you can't kill them yet I know, I want you maybe we'll win...maybe we'll be slaughtered very messily and have out organs strewn around like decorations... ..what did he say? No! later trust me it'll be better then .... * Rethwyn sweat drop is it just me hmm??? okay you got it! No funny stuff though! |Reldayne leave| or are they discussing the entertainment we shall be given in a live or death battle? |The door opens| ..ok.. .................? .that was.. how is it said "...pointless?" something is wrong here * Raena blinks. "What... just letting us go?" i agree. I will never ever understand the dark ones ..uh.. I have a question ..how do we get out of here? there's no ladder up to the hole.. Zeppelin was just bait.......she I have no clue about * Raena looks through the now opened door. "Zeppelin?" ..that’s Zeppelin? hello Raena :) welcome to the insanity zeppelin... <^Drake> So who's your woman............you.. you * ^Drake smirks ... <^Drake> Cradle robber thank all of you for saving us...My name is Celes i believe she is just a ..... * Raena smiles. "I'm glad we were able to save you." * zeppelin glares at drake <^Drake> Well Celes How do you propose we get out of here? never....say that title around me...please..? please.. don't say cradle robber around me..... * Raena curtseys a little to Celes. "I'm Raena.." <^Drake> Why not?? -_-' ..guess I know alot of magic...consisting of teleport, I have never taken this many people before though vaguely remember something? ah how cute an outmeeking contest already taken from my father after he was killed.. lets see.. <^Drake> That makes it all interesting * Celes pats the cute little kitty kat it's not a cat.. drake.... it's a dragon.. Teleport magic? That is every rare.. where are Jarek? .. I AM A DRAGONNOTACAT!!! ..Jarek...
